Processing instructions
Ampatex® LDA 0.02 plus is used as the airtight layer in the restoration of the roof while retaining the insulation between the rafters, when the inside space covering is not airtight.
First, the rafters must be fully insulated. Under no circumstances should there be any open cavity between the insulation and top edge of the rafter. Ampatex® LDA 0.02 plus is then laid parallel to the eaves and with the printed side facing the moulder on to the existing support structure, formwork or cavity insulation with 10 cm overlap and then nailed (Breitkopf brand nails) or stapled to cover the overlapping area. Bond the overlaps with integrated tape so that they are airtight. Rub the bonding surface thoroughly. Also overlap butt joints by 10 cm and bond with Ampacoll® Superfix or Ampacoll® XT 60 mm. Joints to inflow sheets and flanging on fireplaces, skylights and other fixtures etc. must be permanently bonded with Ampacoll® Superfix and fixed mechanically where necessary. Penetrations such as ventilation towers, outlet vents, etc. should be sealed with Ampacoll® BK 535 butyl rubber tape. Porous, dusty and non-woven substrates must be pre-treated with Ampacoll® Connect when using Ampacoll® BK butyl tapes. Special attention should be paid to the joints of the air-sealing sheet at the eaves and gable end. The sheet must be attached to the underlying components so that it is airtight.
The over-insulation should be installed immediately after laying the Ampatex LDA 0.02 plus in order to avoid condensation. The following rule of thumb can be applied for the thickness of the over-insulation: it should be about 1∕3 of total insulation thickness. Please note the country-specific heat engineering standards and specifications of the insulation manufacturers.
